Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, managed by National Highways, involved an open procedure for the project titled "HRE - Liverpool Aintree - Southport - Sutton’s Bridge." This procurement, categorised under railway maintenance or service vehicles and railway freight wagons, targeted works across various locations including the United Kingdom, Europe, and British Overseas Territories. The project reached the award stage on 3 October 2025, with a contract period from the same day until 1 November 2025. The process valued at £17,119 underlines its suitability for SMEs, despite not being intended for VCSE organisations. The procedure, open and above threshold, was executed within a short tender period, concluding just as the award was made.

Businesses specialising in railway equipment and services would find growth opportunities by engaging in such tenders, given the project’s alignment with railway industry requirements. As the procurement method was open, it allowed fair competition among various suppliers, with AMCO-Giffen emerging as the awarded supplier. SMEs with strengths in supplying maintenance or service vehicles for railways are particularly well-suited to compete in similar future tenders. The involvement in this public procurement process offers a strategic opportunity to enhance business credentials and expand operational horizons across multiple regions.
